Neutrino Masses and SO(10) SUSY GUTs
نویسنده
چکیده
In this talk I discuss the qualitative features of an SO(10) SUSY GUT with an SU(2)x U(1) family symmetry. I then describe the global fit of this theory to precision electroweak data [including charged fermion masses and mixing angles]. Finally, the predictions of the model for neutrino masses and mixing are discussed. The most predictive version of the model naturally fits atmospheric neutrino data with maximal νμ −→ ντ oscillations and solar neutrino data with small mixing angle MSW νe −→ νsterile oscillations.

Gauge Coupling Unification and Neutrino Masses in 5d Susy So(10)
In this talk I discuss the problems and virtues of SUSY GUTs in four dimensions. I then show how to solve some of these problems, without foregoing the virtues, by considering an SO(10) SUSY GUT in five dimensions. I discuss gauge coupling unification and neutrino masses. In particular, it is shown that the 5D compactification scale and cutoff scale are determined by fitting the low energy valu...

We present examples of fits of fermion mass data using the 10− 120− 126 FM Higgs system in Susy SO(10) GUTs that follow the scenario[1, 2] in which the 120 -plet collaborates with the 10-plet to fit the charged fermion masses while small 126plet couplings enhance the Type I seesaw neutrino masses to viable values and make the fit to light fermions accurate. Restricting ourselves to the CP conse...
متن کاملSUSY GUT Models of ν Mass and µ → eγ
It is explained why excessive µ → eγ can be a problem in SUSY GUT seesaw models of neutrino mass, and ways that this problem might be avoided are discussed. There are three great advantages that SUSY GUT seesaw models have over other models of neutrino mass and mixing. The first advantage is that neu-trino masses are explained in essentially the same way that the other known fermion masses are ...
متن کاملFlavor and CP Violation Induced by Atmospheric Neutrino Mixing
After discovery of the atmospheric neutrino oscillation by the superKamiokande experiment in 98’ [1], it is found that the lepton sector has much different flavor structure from the quark sector [2][3]. The seesaw mechanism is the most promising model to explain the tiny neutrino masses and the neutrino oscillation [4]. However, the observed mixing angles between the first and second and betwee...
متن کاملFermion Masses in Susy Guts
We discuss the fermion mass problem in SUSY GUTs, including such ideas as texture zeroes, and Georgi-Jarlskog textures. We focus on a specific supersymmetric model based on the gauge group SU(4)⊗SU(2)L ⊗SU(2)R. In this model the gauge group is broken to that of the standard model at 10 GeV, and supersymmetry is broken at low-energy. The model may be regarded as a “surrogate SUSY GUT”, and has s...
